55It was amazing scenery, my dogs really liked it as well as my parents so both species friendly lol. They really enjoyed the space and I enjoyed that it was locked off so the dogs couldn't venture out too far. And overall it was a great experience.Briannah G.

55Sir Douglas had a BLAST and would come back here again and again. He loved the space to get his zoomies out, loved playing fetch and tug of war and also fell in love with some of the toys on site. The property was easy to find and clean. The owner is easy to communicate with. There was lots of add ons available that we didn’t utilize (we wanted to see first if he was even interested) but we will add on next time! Like the sprinklers and bonfire. We’re so grateful to have this as an option as I don’t let him off leash anywhere but here he was safe to run around and be a dog. Thank you so much for renting us your yard- 2 hours was perfect! We will definitely be back!!Abbey B.

55This location is truly exceptional! It is easily accessible with convenient parking. I particularly enjoyed our visit, as it was my dog's first experience at a Sniffspot, and my babies appeared genuinely delighted. We will certainly return, and we especially appreciated the water misters.Leslie S.

55The SniffSpot was great and the dogs had a wonderful time! We did pay for the pool / sprinkler option and it wasn’t set up, but we did book last minute so we totally don’t blame the host. There’s a ton of tennis balls and toys, costumes to try on, and lots of space to run. Great first experience with sniffspot!Gabby G.

55Very cute sniffspot! The pups had fun running around and playing with the toys. There were extra poop bags out in case you ran out, as well as clean water and treats for the pups. Very clean and well lit as well for evening playtime. Would definitely recommend! Nasia O.

55Great sniffspot! It was easy to find and no problem finding parking. There was plenty of toys, the most tennis balls I’ve ever seen, and plenty of shade. My dog was safe and secure playing here. Agatha L.

FAQ About San Diego Dog Parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
